Amount awarded: £150,000 over 3 years (£50k per year)
What the fund is about: The Building Healthy and Sustainable Communities fund supports and develops community initiatives in areas where there are poorer healthcare outcomes. For this 3-year funding, the specific area was Wakefield City Centre including Portobello, Belle Vue and Agbrigg. Grants were available for VCSE work that improves health and wellbeing, connects with communities and reduces health inequalities. Funding was awarded to organisations well placed to support those most likely to experience health inequalities.
Grants are available for young individuals (aged 16 to 25 years) in the UK to deliver a creative project that celebrates why UK native plants and/or fungi are so special.
The Holiday Grants Programme offers one-off grants for schools, youth groups and non-profit organisations to take children aged 13 and under on recreational day trips or short residential trips.
Grants are available to support charities, community organisations, youth projects and sports teams, and individuals across the Wakefield District.
